Why not? Socialists, liberals, conservatives, etc exist in many countries, including Canada. Besides, you have absolute proof none of the troublemakers came from the US?

I'd think the actual instances of violence I posted trump anything these people might have said. I happen to strongly believe people have individual responsibility and accountability for their actions. If someone commits an act of violence, they go to jail. Not probation or sentence thrown out on a technicality. Jail.

Do you think the conservative video-guy (purporting to be an independent journalist) who started it all, had any role or responsibility to bear on the responses that they suggest are as bad as anything heard from the right?

Looks like another example of how the left also has people who suggest violence and bigotry. I don't see the video guy coercing anybody to make the statements they did. It looks like these people were speaking freely. I didn't see any knife, gun or club in the background, did you?

The people the Weathermen killed back in the 1970's are still dead.
Besides which, I also posted a link to the G20 riots in Toronto where 500 peaceful lefties were detained for destroying other people's property.
Since then I've found another current news story about the peaceful lefties.
Bush's Geneva Trip Canceled for Threat of Shoes - CBS News

A visit by former U.S. President George W. Bush to Switzerland next week has been canceled because of security concerns, after left-wing groups called for mass protests and rights activists sought to bring a legal case against him for ordering the torture of terrorism suspects.

"The calls to demonstrate were sliding into dangerous terrain," Equey told the newspaper. "The organizers claimed to be able to maintain order, but warned they could not be held responsible for any outbursts."
Protest organizers had called for participants to each bring a shoe to the rally outside the lakeside Hotel Wilson - named after President Bush's predecessor Woodrow Wilson - where the dinner was to be held. The shoe was meant to recall the moment an Iraqi journalist threw his footwear at Mr. Bush during a news conference in 2008.

While somewhat amusing this is also dangerous. I was at a concert that was cut short because a drummer got a concussion from a thrown shoe.
Peaceful lefties indeed.
